Imac Plus Xubuntu Internet Puzzle

[Irena and Richard Jenkins]

Hello everybody ... and apologies if this has been covered before.  I have 
installed Xubuntu (6.06) on my 350 MHz iMac ... and it went well.  I like the  
modern, smart graphics ... and the snappy response times.  It seems like the 
ideal OS for this old warrior.

However, it does not seem to find the internal modem ... and so I cannot 
connect to the internet.  I tried the documentation ... but no-one uses 
dialup internet any more  ... so the documentation doesn't help.  I tried 
looking at /var/log/dmesg ... but can find no reference to modem.  I know it 
works (with other linux distributions) ... so what's missing..??

Thanks for your help..

Richard
